초록

In the last decades, many publicly available large fundus image datasets have been collected for diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and age-related macular degeneration, and a few other frequent pathologies. These publicly available datasets were used to develop a computer-aided disease diagnosis system by training deep learning models to detect these frequent pathologies. One challenge limiting the adoption of a such system by the ophthalmologist is, computer-aided disease diagnosis system ignores sight-threatening rare pathologies such as central retinal artery occlusion or anterior ischemic optic neuropathy and others that ophthalmologists currently detect. Aiming to advance the state-of-the-art in automatic ocular disease classification of frequent diseases along with the rare pathologies, a grand challenge on “Retinal Image Analysis for multi-Disease Detection” was organized in conjunction with the IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging (ISBI - 2021). This paper, reports the challenge organization, dataset, top-performing participants solutions, evaluation measures, and results based on a new “Retinal Fundus Multi-disease Image Dataset” (RFMiD). There were two principal sub-challenges: disease screening (i.e. presence versus absence of pathology — a binary classification problem) and disease/pathology classification (a 28-class multi-label classification problem). It received a positive response from the scientific community with 74 submissions by individuals/teams that effectively entered in this challenge. The top-performing methodologies utilized a blend of data-preprocessing, data augmentation, pre-trained model, and model ensembling. This multi-disease (frequent and rare pathologies) detection will enable the development of generalizable models for screening the retina, unlike the previous efforts that focused on the detection of specific diseases. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.
